HEART-BREAKING StORY OF NYERI NURSE FELL IN LOVE WITH HER MALE PATIENT THEN KILLED HER
Nearly 20 years ago, Lydia Nyaguthii, a nurse at Tumutumu PCEA Hospital in Nyeri County cared for a male patient who was a victim of domestic violence.
At the hospital, Muriithi met Nyaguthii and had a second chance at love. He had been wheeled into the hospital after being scalded with hot water by his Ex-wife.
After three months of interaction with Muriithi, Nyaguthii’s tender care morphed into love. They married soon after he was discharged from hospital and lived happily, or so everyone thought.
In the two decades since, it seems their love turned sour at some point, and the man Nyaguthii cared for, and whose wounds – both physical and emotional – she helped to heal, turned against her.
Last Friday, Nyaguthii’s life was cut short in a case of gender-based violence, allegedly by a victim of the same vice – her husband of 20 years.
Muriithi is alleged to have stabbed her several times with a knife at their home, killing her instantly. He is on the run, and police have launched a manhunt.
To her friends, workmates, and villagers, Nyaguthii was the epitome of humility – a kind and loving woman.
Members of the family were reluctant to give information about the relationship between the two, saying the police should be allowed to carry out investigations.
